Bath repair in Sedrup, done in place

A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. We work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and scratches in the surface and a chipped rim or side.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Rinse it down after each bath

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Sedrup. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sedrup. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the following day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

FAQs for Sedrup

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Signs you need bath repair in Sedrup

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Chips caused by builders
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
